The Daily Telegraph (Australia)
Adam Garcia is handsomely cast as Sean. Charismatic performances, authentic knockabout humour and spectacular dance routines. The Sun Herald Bootmen has the kind of lean, mean energy which should make it a crowd-pleaser. Perry has got a real find in Adam Garcia. The Sydney Morning Herald At 27 this twinkle-toed Sydney-bred thespian stands at the threshold of International stardom L A Times Bootmen's stars (Garcia, Worthington and Lee) are great-looking, talented and charismatic--particularly Garcia, who also performed in the opening ceremonies of the Olympics in Sydney. "Bootmen," which proves to be a real heart-tugger, is in fact accomplished in all its aspects. |

Sunday Mail (AUS) The Bottom Line: A dance movie with a difference: Bootmen is a gritty, funny, shocking, moving and romantic little gem.....with supremely gifted West End musical star and up-and-coming Hollywood heartthrob Garcia. |
The Weekend Australian. Adam Garcia, the charismatic actor who worked with Perry on Hot Shoe Shuffle and then wowed West End audiences in Saturday Night Fever, is an exciting new presence who, in his first film, shows international star potential. |

Dark Horizons
Garcia is excellent as Sean. His onscreen charisma is complimented by an ability to plumb the emotional depths of the character and show the conflict that arises when we struggle between passion and societal constraints. |
